Based on the results of my benchmark, I set out to align expression and accessibility profiles from the F74 developing thymus dataset to detect changes in accessibility along pseudotime trajectories. While the benchmark was based on the task of label propagation, I here use the two most faithful methods (Seurat CCA and Conos) to achieve a common embedding of ATAC-seq and RNA-seq cells.

Integration of T cells clusters

I re-run the integration based on the T cell subset. To select cells from the scATAC dataset, I take the SnapATAC clusters that best correspond to T-cells, based on label transfer.

tcells.sce.atac <- atac.sce[,which(as.numeric(atac.sce$seurat_clusters) %in% c(1:9))]

tcells.rna.ix <- which(rna.sce$annotation %in% c("DN","DP (Q)", "DP (P)", "SP (1)", "SP (2)"))
tcells.sce.rna <- rna.sce[,tcells.rna.ix]

tcells.sce.list <- list(RNA=tcells.sce.rna, ATAC=tcells.sce.atac)

## Make color palette 4 cell types
cell.types <- as.character(unique(tcells.sce.rna$annotation))
cell.type.pal <- brewer.pal(length(cell.types), "Set1") %>% rev() %>% setNames(cell.types)

Next, I select genes on which to perform integration. I take the union of the most variable features in the RNA dataset and the most covered features in the ATAC dataset

hcg.atac <- select_highlyCovered(tcells.sce.list$ATAC, frac_cells = 0.2)
hvg.rna <- select_highlyVariable(tcells.sce.list$RNA)

Motif analysis

I initially wanted to call peaks from SnapATAC clusters, then build a cell x peak matrix on those detected peaks, but SnapATAC/MACS2 don’t seem to work.

Alternative: load peak matrix from cellranger and add to snap object

filt.peaks <- Read10X_h5("~/my_data/filtered_peak_bc_matrix.h5")
peaks.mat <- str_split(rownames(filt.peaks), pattern = ":|-") %>% map(rbind) %>% purrr::reduce(rbind)
peaks.gr <- GRanges(peaks.mat[,1], IRanges(as.numeric(peaks.mat[,2]), as.numeric(peaks.mat[,3])))
snap.pmat <- createSnapFromPmat(mat=t(filt.peaks[,snap.out@barcode]), barcodes=snap.out@barcode, peaks=peaks.gr)
snap.pmat

Calculating deviations in TF accessibility using ChromVAR. This is a measure of how much is motif accessibility in each cell is enriched compared to all the cells and general cell coverage. While SnapATAC has an wrapper around ChromVAR that outputs the deviation matrix, I just take the code from that function and run every step separately to keep the useful outputs and statistics of chromVAR.

snap.pmat = makeBinary(snap.pmat, "pmat")

obj = snap.pmat
input.mat="pmat"
min.count=10
species="Homo sapiens"
genome=BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38

data.use = obj@pmat
peak.use = obj@peak

ncell = nrow(data.use)

idy = which(Matrix::colSums(data.use) >= min.count)
data.use = data.use[,idy,dropping=TRUE]
    
peak.use = peak.use[idy]

rse <- SummarizedExperiment(
        assays = list(counts = t(data.use)), 
                 rowRanges = peak.use, 
                 colData = DataFrame(Cell_Type=1:nrow(data.use), depth=Matrix::rowSums(data.use))
    );
rse <- addGCBias(rse, genome = genome);
motifs <- getJasparMotifs(collection = "CORE", species=species);
motif_mm <- matchMotifs(motifs, rse, genome = genome);
dev <- computeDeviations(object = rse, annotations = motif_mm);
var <- computeVariability(dev)

Compare motif accessibility trend with gene expression trend along pseudotime. I find both examples of correlation between accessibility and TF expression (e.g. RUNX2, ELK3) and anti-correlation (e.g. JUN, ETV6).

map(list("JUN", "ELK3", "RUNX2", "REL", "FOS", "ETV6", "TCF3"), ~ plot.tfs(.x) + ggsave(paste0(outdir, paste0('TF_plot_',.x,".png")), width = 8, height=5))
